The following letter, voluntarily' fur .tiished us by Mr. S. B. Wright, who left this city for the gold mines on Tnesday last, we. take pleasure in placing before our readers. Mr. W. is an old and re liable adventurer "has grown gray , in the service." Was for 15 years a resi dent of Adair Co., Mo. Bkow-villi, N. T., ' April 22, 1559. R. W. Fcrxas, Esq., Editor drcriiscr Sir: Having select ed your city as the point from which to . start for the geld m;n?s ; . and being under .promise to numerous friends in Adair, . Putnam and Schuyler coun'.ies, Missouri, to write them tho point I might select ' from which to start, I take this method of informing my friends and giving testi mony in favor cf Brownville. I . have been across the plains four different times, starting each time from different places, and tun free to say I greatly prefer Brownville as a starting point to that of any ether on the river. If my friends in Adair, Putnam and Schujler counties, Missouri, are disposed to govern themselves by my advice and experience, they will start from Brown ville. On this route, the road is better, shorter, better supplied with wood and water, and you can travel farther through settlements than any ether I have travel led. : '' - As to supplies and prices in Brownville. The merchants have every desirable or ". needed article, and at prices, to say the least," as low as at any other point. A ' friend cf mine who purchased supplies at St. Joseph and came cn to this place in forms me that prices are evea lower here than st St. Joseph. '. If you ihinlc this brief note will prove ' beneficial to your readers who are con- ' teraplating going to the mines, you will . please give it a place iu your paper. . Respectfully yours, . . . : Scott B. Wright. ' " I ... . : U The Iowa State Gazette says that in seven days, from Friday April 1st, 109 ' teams have crossed Court Avenus Bridge, 09 thf ir way to Pike's Teak, making a total cf 357 since February 23d. - - : Egotism. The editors of the --crib fed" organs at Omaha and Nebraska City are just now' playing extensively the interesting little game : "you tickle me .and I'll tickle you;" and at the same time -indulging in an amount of egotism never witnessed in practical newspaper men; and ' misrepre sentations towards other newspapers in the Territory,- quite unbecoming. One produces, and the other copies, an article "Nebraska Newspapers," in which is at-' tempted to convey the idea that there are really but'two papers iu Nebraska, "the J t braskian and A'etcs ; " the others ail be-. ing "kiting'affairs." The article wasun-1 doubtedly - not written-' for 4home ' con sumption," where the papers are known. In defence of our own paper, the "Ad vertiser" we have only to say, we have published it now near three jTears,' during which time.il has in no instance failed to appear regularly oh publication day,' and has issued a half sheet but once, and that' on account of an accident just as going to press. . uan eitner or "tie two papers in JWbrdska" say. as much? Not by a long way! As to standing,, and patronage bestowed ly thz people we will go a small wager pf S50j to go into the Sch'ooFfund of the Coarity or district of the winning party, that the "Advertiser?' can show a larger iubs'cn'ption list; a better advertis ing and job patronage than either "one of the saH&-"i'J:o'.papers in Nebraska."' Vill you come to the scratch?" ' . . Could- there-te 'a possibility cf.acccmi plishing any good by so doing, we -feel like complaining ,lloud and long" in regard to mail irregularities, and failures. But while those having charge of the mail services axe ct responsible to the people for tktir ccs" we need hope for nothing b'etter.. Although 'we have mail lines to this city and county sufficient to aceom-. modate our wants if faiihf ully and honest ly served, we can place no dependence' whatever in them, and they have been growing worse and worse, cf late, until our accommodations amount to just nothing at all at present. . In fact were we with out any mail facility, we -would' expect nothing, and consequently escape a huge amount of disappointment and vexation. We are confident the principal cause of mail failure at this point is at 'Reck Port and Nebraska City. Instead cf cur mail matter being stopped at Rock Port and. sent to this place daily, as it should be, it is permitted to pass on to Council Bluff, then across to Omaha and -f rem thence down on this side cf the river to this place. At Nebraska City mail matter is permitted to accumulate, because of a failure on the part of the contractors to carry it. It is the duty of the Post Master at Nebraska City in such case to employ the mail carried according to con tract, at the expense of the regular con tractor. No Laws Yet. Notwithstanding it was announced some time ago, by the pseudo Territorial Print ers through their respective sheets, that the laws of the last session were out; and the "pets" talked much of the "typogra-r phical appearancs of the work executed by us," which was, however, really printed in New York the people of ' the Territory are in blissful ignorance of the contents of said Books, except as procur ed on the payment cf two dollars for a copy ! We notice quite a nice dodge practiced in getting up their present edition, "on sale at the Book Stores," viz: the names of "C. C. Si C. D. Woolworth" are insert ed as publishers in place of the Territorial Printers. Jlap of Nebraska and Dakota. Hon. S. A.

Commissioner Stark has received all the plats of the half-breed lands, situated in Nemaha and Richardson counties, and is now allotting to the Half-Breeds en titled. His head quarters is at Aspin wall. The Aspinwall Town Company, which is strong and reliable, are now making renewed, and we doubt not successful efforts to push ahead this famous town site. New Lands Open to Pre-emption. We understand that the Land Office at this place is in receipt of plats of town ships 3 and 4 north cf ranges 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8, west of the sixth principal meridian, containing 3 1S.000 acres, and embracing some of the finest lands and timber that can.be found in Nebraska Territory. These lands are traversed by the Big and Little Blue rivers, and are not included in the tract of country that will be offered for sale in August and September next. These lands are situated alonrr and contiguous to the great thoroughfare lead ing from Leavenworth, St. Joseph and Brownville, on the Missouri river, to the gold mines of Kansas and Nebraska.

Washington',' March 21, '59. air : i.ne cmnnssjoner crtne ueneral Land Office has .suspended two entries at the La.ndOffice at Omaha, Nebraska,, .as follows, to-wit':' No. So,. dated March 31st, 1S57, for 294 '70-100. acre's; -No.'210,-dated May 13th, lSo7, fdr-300 40-100-acres, as having been made in due form as required by the act' 23d May, 1S44.- Three entries have been -made. by. the Mayor of Kearney City- and .Nebraska City. Were they, the trustees legally qual ified, to take the titles at the date at which the entries were effected? : To tai3 ques tion I invite your attention, and request your opinion upon the same. The certificates or. entry are herewith'' enclosed for your examination in connec-. tion with the case. Very respectfully,' . Your cbt. serv'i, J; THOMPSON, Sec'y.' .. Hon.. J. S. Black, Att'y .Gen'l. : ATTonxEY General's Office, March 21, . ',59. Sir: .In . compliance, with the request contained in your letter of this date, rela tive to the suspended entry of the town site, I have to- say that I can see nothing on the face of the .entry which ought to prevent a patent from-issuing. It was made by the Mayor. The Commissioner of the General Land Office thought' at. first that it-should have been made by the City Council: The act of - 1S44, which governs the subject, -does not say it must be done by either Jmt by "the Corporate Authorities," Now,. the Mayor is no'less a portion .'of the ' Corporate ' Authorities than the Council; besides, I -do not know, (and I suppose you do not,') whether there is . any Council under the charter cf Kear ney City, . At. all events, it appears that the Mayor, being an.ofiicial organ ef the City Corporation, has made the entry with the assent of all other parties;. The pre sumption is a fair orie that he was author ized to do. so, if he was, then he -is the' proper Corporate Authority. '. It is v-ory clear, that the Mayor, in the execution 'of his official dbt-y, entered the land on which the city stands, acknowledging, all the proper obligations, and trusts .which he could and would have assumed for the benefit of the inhabitants.- Their .title (that of the inhabitants,) became per fectly good, and it must be enforced in any court cf law or equity. The object of the law was to give the owners of .'lots a good title to their property. When the patent issues under this entry, they will have a good title, and I do not. see the practical use, nor the legal necessity, of requiring another entry to be made. This opinion applies also to Nebraska City. I am most respectfully, yours, &c, signed. J. S. BLACK. Hon. J. Thompson. Br. A. S. Knnekel. A person by the name of Goemlat, writes us from Brownville to ascertain the "real character" of Dr. Kunckel. So far as we know the Doctor has no parti cular character that we can describe for the benefit cf our correspondent. ' In. an swer to his query we will state that he has a wife (no children), who is at . present in Ohio, we believe. The Dr. left here last fall for the mines; returned . this spring, and left again in a few days. He never did either much good or much harm hereabout, so far as we are adviSed ; ap pears to be clever, sociable and very .talk ative. If he has done you any harm, Mr. G., no doubt he will make it "all right" when he next meets you. No more at present. Sioux City Eagte.
